Music by Bergman: Everything But The Girl

Everything But The Girl have released a new single ‘Nothing Left To Lose, the first taste of upcoming album ‘Fuse’, which marks their first LP in more than 24 years.

The new track by the husband and wife duo, comprising Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt, is out now along with a music video directed by Charlie Di Placido. ‘Fuse’ comprises 10 tracks and is described as a “modern take on the lustrous electronic soul” that they once produced in the mid-’90s.

The album was largely recorded in secret at their home across the spring and summer of 2021, with additional sessions taking place in a studio outside of Bath with friend and engineer, Bruno Ellingham.

It was taken as the second single off the album on 8 August 1994 by Atlantic Records and Blanco Y Negro Records. Initially it did not achieve much success, so in 1995 the song was remixed by Todd Terry and re-released, resulting in a worldwide hit, peaking near the top of the charts in many countries.
